How EthicalHub works

Your day on the floor.
Already logged.

No new process — EthicalHub fits the work you already do. Staff log checks as they happen. When council, a retailer, or a certifier asks for evidence, you pull it in 60 seconds.

01
Food arrives
Check the delivery, record temperature, and confirm supplier paperwork before anything goes into storage or production.
e.g. Chilled goods at 3°C · COA on file
02
You cook or produce
Log critical checks as you go — cook temps, cooling, batch details — so the record matches what actually happened on the floor.
e.g. Core cook 74°C · Batch A-2417
03
You store & hold
Fridge, freezer, and coolroom checks stay on schedule — logged by hand or from automatic sensors. Anything out of range is flagged before it becomes an audit finding.
e.g. Coolroom ≤5°C · sensor logged
04
You clean & sign off
Sanitation, pest control, training, and equipment calibration — the daily and periodic checks auditors always ask for.
e.g. Pre-open clean · signed by M. Pham
05
Auditor asks — you show
One click builds a timestamped audit pack: temperatures, cleaning logs, supplier certs, and corrective actions — ready to hand over.

Getting started

Live in under an hour.
No IT project. No setup fees.

1
Import your Food Safety Program
Upload your existing FSP, supplier list and certificates. EthicalHub maps them to the right PRP structure automatically.
2
Configure your CCPs and PRPs
FSANZ 3.2.1 structure is pre-built — you set monitoring frequencies and critical limits, not templates from scratch.
3
Log on the floor, in real time
Temperature checks, cleaning sign-offs and delivery records logged on any device as they happen — not written up hours later.
4
Export when the auditor arrives
One click compiles a timestamped audit pack — HACCP records, PRP logs, corrective actions, supplier certs — ready to hand over.
The problem

Where compliance actually breaks down

Not from ignorance of HACCP principles — from documentation that can't keep pace with a busy production floor.

1
PRP and CCP records live in binders and spreadsheets
Melbourne Snack Co. logged 209 PRP records last quarter — and still spent four hours before their BRCGS audit finding one sanitation sign-off from March 14th. It existed. Nobody could locate it fast enough.
2
Supplier certificates expire without warning
A key ingredient supplier's HACCP certificate lapsed three weeks before a Coles supplier audit. Nobody noticed — it was tracked in a spreadsheet nobody was checking that month.
3
Corrective actions get logged after the fact
A coolroom breach at 8.4°C got fixed within the hour. The corrective action paperwork got written up two days later, from memory — after the affected batch had already shipped.
4
Stepping up to GFSI-recognised certification means starting over
A retailer moves you from a basic supplier program to SQF with 90 days' notice. Most platforms mean rebuilding your entire compliance system from scratch to get there in time.
Before and after

How your month changes.

Same HACCP programme. Same team. Half the panic before an audit.

Without EthicalHub
Chase the floor for last week's temperature logs before every audit
Find out a supplier cert lapsed when the auditor asks for it
Write up corrective actions from memory, hours or days later
Compile audit evidence manually from binders and spreadsheets
Re-platform every time a retailer requires a higher certification tier
With EthicalHub
Every check logged on the floor as it happens — searchable instantly
Automatic temperature sensors write fridge and coolroom readings for you
Certificate expiry alerts land in your inbox 60, 30 and 7 days out
Corrective actions raised in the moment, with a timestamped trail
A complete audit pack compiled in 60 seconds, any date range
Step up to SQF, FSSC 22000 or BRCGS on the same records — no re-platform

The hours you get back aren't abstract — they're the hours you'd otherwise spend chasing evidence before every single audit. That's the actual return.

Why this, not a generic checklist tool

Built around the audit, not around a to-do list

EthicalHub is structured around FSANZ 3.2.1 from day one — records, corrective actions and audit exports built for how a HACCP-based audit actually reads your business.

✓ What EthicalHub does
Structures records against FSANZ 3.2.1 / 3.2.2A from day one
Lets you step up to full scheme alignment on the same data, no re-platform
Prices per site, so a single-site manufacturer isn't paying enterprise rates
Gets you live in under an hour, importing your existing documents
Connects automatic temperature sensors so fridge and coolroom logs write themselves
Ethics and sustainability documentation built in alongside your food safety records
✗ What it doesn't do
Replace your ERP or production scheduling system
Require a consultant to configure before you can use it
Lock you into a scheme you haven't chosen yet
Charge enterprise pricing for a single-site plant
The EthicalHub difference

Compliance is the floor.
Ethics is the ceiling.

Every other compliance platform stops at the audit. EthicalHub goes further — making your ethical supply chain visible, traceable and provable. Because the name means something.

SafetyCulture, Squizify, SafetyChain — they stop at food safety. EthicalHub is built around the idea that how you make food matters as much as whether it's safe.

How we compare

The right tool depends on
what you actually make.

The compliance software market splits into three tiers. Understanding which tier you belong in saves you from paying for enterprise complexity you don't need — or settling for a hospitality tool that doesn't understand manufacturing.

Tier 1 — Australian Food Businesses (EthicalHub)
Tier 2 — General Inspection & Hospitality
Tier 3 — Enterprise Plant Systems

EthicalHub vs SafetyCulture

SafetyCulture is a powerful general inspection tool — but you build food safety templates yourself. EthicalHub ships with all 18 PRPs and HACCP tracking already structured, priced flat per site (not per user), and adds ethics documentation SafetyCulture doesn't offer.

EthicalHub vs Squizify

Squizify is excellent for restaurants and retail — it focuses on FSANZ 3.2.2A food service. EthicalHub covers 3.2.1 manufacturers (batching, raw materials, calibration, GFSI standards) and extends to ethics and sustainability documentation no competitor offers.

EthicalHub vs Enterprise

SafetyChain and Safefood 360° are built for large plants at $1,000+/month. EthicalHub closes the SME gap — manufacturer-grade compliance and ethics documentation without the enterprise price tag or 3-month implementation project.

Competitor capabilities based on publicly available product pages and independent market analysis. Accurate as of September 2026.

Common questions

Most businesses are live within an hour. You import your existing Food Safety Program documents and supplier list, and EthicalHub structures them automatically. There's no consultant required and no IT project — just a guided setup that walks you through each section.
No. EthicalHub is pre-structured around FSANZ 3.2.1 and all 18 prerequisite programs are built in from day one. You don't need to create templates, design checklists, or hire a consultant to configure anything. You bring your existing documents; we provide the structure.
It's built for both. Floor staff log temperature checks, cleaning sign-offs, and delivery records in seconds on any device. QA managers and owners see the compliance dashboard, get alerts, and export audit packs. All plans include unlimited staff logins at no extra cost per person.
No. Automatic temperature sensor integration is included on every EthicalHub plan — Essentials, Professional and Enterprise. Fridge, freezer and coolroom readings can land in the log without a clipboard walk. You can still log by hand on the floor if a sensor isn't fitted yet.
One click exports a complete, timestamped audit pack — HACCP records, PRP logs, corrective actions, supplier certificates, calibration records, and delivery logs — compiled and formatted for your certification body or retail program. Coles CSR-F and Woolworths WSE formats are built in on Professional and Enterprise plans.
SafetyCulture is a general inspection tool — powerful, but it requires you to build food-specific templates yourself and doesn't understand FSANZ 3.2.1, PRP structures, or retailer audit programs natively. EthicalHub ships with all 18 PRPs already configured, adds ethics and sustainability documentation SafetyCulture doesn't offer, and prices flat per site rather than per user.
Yes. Any food business with a compliance obligation — restaurants, catering companies, hospitals, aged care facilities, and food manufacturers — can use EthicalHub. The Essentials plan is designed for single-site operations like a kitchen or café. The platform scales up through Professional and Enterprise for multi-site or larger operations.
EthicalHub captures supplier ethical sourcing declarations, modern slavery risk documentation, worker welfare records, and ingredient provenance at the batch level. On Professional and Enterprise plans you can generate a consolidated ethics and impact report — food safety compliance, supplier ethics, traceability, and modern slavery risk status in one document. No other food compliance platform in Australia offers this.
30 days free on any plan, no credit card required. At the end of the trial you choose a plan and billing cycle, or your account moves to read-only and your data stays safe until you decide. There are no lock-in contracts and you can cancel anytime. Your data always remains yours.
